Abstract
The paper describes a study of an excavator-based yarder/processor in a Norwegian cable logging operation. The study investigated the excavator’s potential as a combined base machine for both yarding, and processing of trees on the landing. A prototype was built and studied in operation, and the productivity of the system was measured in a time study. As a complete system consisting of two workers and one machine, the prototype produced 6.3 m3/productive work hour.
